NEFF CORPORATION
Neff Corporation is a Delaware corporation formed on 18 August 2014 (SEC CIK 0001617667, Commission File No. 001-36752, IRS employer number 37-1773826). It ran an equipment-rental business headquartered at 3750 N.W. 87th Avenue, Suite 400, Miami, Florida 33178. Neff Corporation rented earthmoving, material-handling, aerial and other construction and industrial equipment. It also sold used and new equipment, parts and service. Its customers were mainly in non-residential construction, oil and gas, infrastructure and residential construction.
The identifier stored on this page, G00320900113, is not this company’s registration number. In Florida, a “G” document number is a fictitious-name (trade-name) registration, and this number does not appear in the Florida Department of State’s current file of active fictitious names. Neff Corporation’s own charter is in Delaware. The company did not file with the SEC after October 2017, and Delaware’s register could not be opened, so its current standing is unverified.
At 31 December 2016, Neff Corporation ran 69 branches in five regions: Florida, Atlantic, Central, Southeastern and Western. Sixty-four of them were in the Sunbelt states, from Virginia and the Carolinas through Texas to Arizona, Nevada and California. It had about 1,160 full-time employees. Consolidated total revenues for 2016 were $397.0 million, including $360.1 million from rentals, up from $383.9 million in 2015. These are the company’s last reported annual figures.
Neff Corporation completed an initial public offering on 26 November 2014 and listed its Class A common stock on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “NEFF”. On 14 July 2017 it agreed to a cash merger with H&E Equipment Services, Inc. It ended that agreement on 16 August 2017 after receiving an offer its board judged superior. The replacement merger closed on 2 October 2017 at $25.00 per share. The stock stopped trading on the NYSE before the market opened that day, and a Form 15 filed on 12 October 2017 ended the company’s SEC reporting.
The Neff business is older than the 2014 corporation. It traces back to MP Equipment, founded in 1988. A separate, earlier Delaware company, Neff Corp. (CIK 0001057725, IRS number 65-0626400), was formed in 1995 as a holding company and listed on the NYSE in May 1998. It deregistered its stock in July 2003. Florida’s register records that it withdrew its Florida qualification (document F95000006219) on 13 June 2011. The website neffrental.com, stored on the card, did not show any Neff content when checked on 30 September 2026. It served an unrelated online-lottery page.

Shareholders
Shareholders of Neff Corporation
Since 2 October 2017, Neff Corporation has had a single shareholder, according to the latest filings. That day, UR Merger Sub III Corporation merged into Neff Corporation. Neff Corporation survived the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of United Rentals (North America), Inc., a Delaware corporation. Each Class A share was cancelled and converted into the right to $25.00 in cash. The restated certificate of incorporation filed at closing authorises 100 shares of a single class of common stock. The company’s Form 15 of 12 October 2017 reports one holder of record. Neff Corporation has filed nothing with the SEC since then, so no later ownership change would appear on the public record.
Before the merger, Neff Corporation had two share classes. Class A stock was held by the public and traded on the NYSE. All of the Class B stock was held by Wayzata Opportunities Fund II, L.P. and Wayzata Opportunities Fund Offshore II, L.P., funds managed by Wayzata Investment Partners LLC. Class B shares carried votes but no economic rights. The economic interest was held through units of Neff Holdings LLC. The two classes therefore have to be read as separate figures:
- At 23 February 2017: 8,859,662 Class A and 14,951,625 Class B shares were outstanding (2016 Form 10-K).
- At 31 December 2016: the Wayzata funds held 62.8% of the combined voting power and about 62.8% of the economic interest in Neff Holdings LLC (2016 Form 10-K).
- At 11 September 2017: the Wayzata funds held about 62.7% of the common stock (information statement, Form DEFM14C). They approved the merger by written consent on 16 August 2017.
Ultimate beneficial ownership
Since the October 2017 merger, Neff Corporation’s ultimate parent has been United Rentals, Inc. (Delaware; NYSE: URI; SEC CIK 0001067701). The effective holding is 100%, calculated as 100% (United Rentals, Inc. in United Rentals (North America), Inc., per its Exhibit 21) × 100% (United Rentals (North America), Inc. in Neff Corporation, per the merger 8-K). United Rentals, Inc. is a widely held listed company. No natural person was identified in the filings reviewed as holding a controlling interest in it, so no individual beneficial owner of Neff Corporation is named here.
Data availability
Current ownership is known only from the October 2017 filings and Exhibit 21 to United Rentals’ later 10-Ks. Delaware does not publish shareholder lists, and Neff Corporation has not reported to the SEC since 2017. The shareholder note stored for this company says US companies do not usually disclose shareholders. That note is irrelevant here: this company’s ownership was fully disclosed in its SEC filings until 2017.

Officers
Directors and officers of Neff Corporation
No current list of Neff Corporation’s directors was found in any public source. The company is a Delaware corporation, and it stopped filing SEC reports in October 2017. The Delaware register could not be searched because it is behind a captcha. Neff Corporation holds no Florida registration of its own, so Florida’s register lists no officers for it.
The last dated officer information comes from the merger filings. The 8-K of 2 October 2017 says that when the merger took effect, every Neff director ceased to hold office and every Neff officer resigned. The directors and officers of UR Merger Sub III Corporation took their places. The filing does not name those people. The latest officer named on the public record is Joli L. Gross. She signed the company’s Form 15 on 12 October 2017 as Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary, and had also signed the 2 October 8-K.
Before the merger, the company’s September 2017 information statement named Graham Hood as President and Chief Executive Officer and Mark Irion as Chief Financial Officer. Both left office on 2 October 2017 under the 8-K described above, so neither should be treated as a current officer.
Recent officer changes
- 31 August 2017: Joseph Deignan resigned as a director with immediate effect (Form 8-K, 31 August 2017).
- 2 October 2017: all directors ceased to hold office, all officers resigned, and the directors and officers of UR Merger Sub III Corporation took over (Form 8-K, 2 October 2017).
- 12 October 2017: Joli L. Gross signed the Form 15 as Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary.
Data availability
Officer data for this company is historical, with nothing after October 2017, and incomplete: the post-merger board is not named in any filing reviewed. The stored note saying officer data is “not available for this jurisdiction” is wrong. SEC filings published this company’s officers until 2017, and US state registers publish officer data. For this company it is simply not reachable free of charge. No filing reviewed discloses any officer’s nationality or country of residence: Not disclosed. Florida’s register lists officers for a different, earlier company, Neff Corp. (document F95000006219, withdrawn 2011). They are not officers of this company.

Group Structure
Group structure of Neff Corporation
Neff Corporation has been part of the United Rentals group since 2 October 2017. On that date it became a wholly owned subsidiary of United Rentals (North America), Inc., which is in turn wholly owned by United Rentals, Inc. (NYSE: URI). Both are Delaware corporations.
Before the merger, Neff Corporation was the holding company of an “Up-C” structure. It was the managing member of Neff Holdings LLC. The rental business was run below Neff Holdings LLC through subsidiaries including Neff LLC and Neff Rental LLC. All three were named as credit parties in the credit agreements the company terminated at closing.
Whether Neff Corporation still exists as a separate company could not be confirmed. It is not named in United Rentals’ Exhibit 21 subsidiary lists for 31 December 2017 or 31 December 2025. However, SEC rules let a filer leave out insignificant subsidiaries, so its absence from those lists does not prove it was merged or dissolved. Neff Rental LLC withdrew its Florida registration on 13 March 2018. It relinquished its Colorado authority on 12 March 2018.

Recent structural changes
- 14 July 2017: Neff Corporation agreed to be acquired by H&E Equipment Services, Inc. through a merger with Yellow Iron Merger Co. (Form 8-K, 14 July 2017).
- 16 August 2017: Neff Corporation terminated the H&E agreement. It signed a merger agreement with United Rentals (North America), Inc. and UR Merger Sub III Corporation (Form 8-K, 17 August 2017).
- 2 October 2017: the merger was completed. Neff Corporation survived as a wholly owned subsidiary of United Rentals (North America), Inc. United Rentals reports aggregate consideration of about $1.316 billion (Form 8-K, 2 October 2017; United Rentals 2017 Form 10-K).
How the business reached Neff Corporation: on 1 October 2010, Neff Holdings LLC bought substantially all of the assets of Neff Holdings Corp. and certain affiliates in their Chapter 11 cases. Neff Holdings Corp. had owned the earlier Neff Corp. since a buyout led by Lightyear Capital closed on 31 May 2007. Neff Corporation was formed on 18 August 2014 to sit above Neff Holdings LLC for the November 2014 IPO.
Data availability
The structure shown is partial and mostly historical. The parent relationship is confirmed by filings dated October 2017 and by United Rentals’ Exhibit 21 for fiscal 2025. Subsidiary percentages below Neff Holdings LLC were never disclosed. Delaware’s register, which could confirm whether Neff Corporation still exists, is behind a captcha and was not searched. United Rentals’ figures above are group figures, not Neff Corporation’s. The stored group note saying the company “operates as a single entity” is wrong.
